Kolakowski was a frequent dead-eye from beyond the arc converting on several chances. He has a green light release, and if his feet are set good luck!! He also moved the ball to his teammates and didn’t let the ball stick to his hands. Kolakowski had a successful trip to the foul line.

has a compact release and can shoot it from deep range as well. Kolakowski thrives off the catch as a shooter and hunts his shot from three point range. An excellent off ball player, not only does Kolakowski excel as a perimeter shooter but also excels as a cutter in halfcourt sets. As we approach the May live period, look for Kolakowski to continue shine in his abilities to not only be an excellent off ball threat but also in his ability to do some of the dirty work in crashing the boards and pressuring the ball out on the perimeter.

will look to provide a lethal perimeter shooting ability to the GB Blue Devils’ backcourt. Coming off a strong sophomore season that saw him bury threes, from deep range too, night in and night out, look for Kolakowski to expand his offensive skillset as a playmaker and become a more well rounded guard going into HGAL play.
